My iphone 4 wont restore my pictures from my backup. I never uploaded them to the computer so this is a big deal.

I have tried to restore from my Iphone 4 from my last back up and other back ups to see if it would help. Nothing seemed to work to get my media back. I really need my pictures because i have not backed them up on my computer

The backup only saves the iPads own camera roll. You should have backed up your other photo's into whatever application you use for photo's on your computer. If you did not back them up somewhere, they are gone.
This articel will tell you exactly what is backed up: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946

IPhone 5: Restoring Camera Roll from iCloud Backup.

When restoring all data from iCloud Backup, Camera Roll never finished downloading. It was stuck at 5 out of 715. How can I restore Camera Roll from iCloud Backup now that the initial "start up" Restore is complete?

Got my photos & videos back into camera roll! I woke this morning and all 701 were there. This is a few less than the most recent backup had, but good enough. So, there were a few things flakey about my experience restoring from iCloud. Therefore as many, including yourself have noted, iCloud IS ABSOLUTELY NOT A TRUSTED METHOD for backing up, storing or restoring photos & videos. If your photos & videos are important to you, backup to your computer at regular intervals.
What worked?
1: Following randers4's suggestion to review ezjules' post (see above for link).
2: When the most recent backup failed, I went to the next one available (2 days old)
3: When the Photo App displaying X of XXX images downloading in camera roll got hung up on the first few images, I powered down the phone and it resumed downloading more. However, it hung up 2 more times and then proceeded while I went to bed.
4: Phone was plugged into A/C outlet entire time, no incoming or outgoing phone calls or texts.
I am no longer going to back up photos or videos to the cloud. I will also cancel my additional storage capacity on iCloud. Why pay for secure storage that is so flakey?!?

How can i take the pictures from my old ipod and transfer them onto my computer without deleting anything

How can I take the pics from my old ipod and transfer them onto my computer without deleting anything?

Pictures on an iPod are stored in a special format, optimized for the iPod's small lower resolution screen, to save storage space. iTunes puts them into that format when syncing. There is setting in iTunes, on the iPod's Photos screen (where you set up syncing of photos) for Include full resolution photos. If that checkbox was checked when you synced the photos to the iPod, THEN you can Enable disk use and find those photo files on the iPod in the Photos folder.
Otherwise, you cannot get your photos back, using iTunes. There may be third-party utilities that can extract individual photos from the iPod, but they will still be lower-resolution versions of the original photo.

How can i take my pictures from my photo album and put them onto my computer without losing anything?

Ok so my computer crashed and i had to restore my computer to factory settings so i took all my pictures off my computer and put them on my phone well i fixed my computer so now i wanna put the pictures back on my computer is there a way i can do it without having to email each pictures to myself?

The picture sync is ONE-WAY - computer to iphone. Iphone is not a storage device or a backup device.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put the pics back.
When you sync pics from your computer to your iphone they are reduced in resolution. They will never be of the original resolution, but you can e-mail them to yourself.

How do I retrieve an itune library purchased on my iphone after an accidental autosync. I was about to transfer them to the computer itunes library when this happened.

I have accidently autosynced my iphone and it wiped my whole ipod. It didn't even it sync the phone to have what is available on the computer itunes. I can luckily restore this but all the music purchased on the iphone has disappeared. I was about to transfer it over to the computer so it is not on the computer itunes library. Is there a way to retrieve this? It is all listed in the itunes store purchase history as a cruel reminder to it's existance.

you can't with music untill ios5 is released

HT1766 i am trying to restore my iPad from a backup. I do not get the option of restoring from backup.... I only get restore to orginal settings?

I was attempting to update my ipad to the newest OS system and it crashed... I came back with it saying that it had an error and did not update. Now I only get the iTunes logo on the ipad witht he usb cord picture.
I have gone into iTunes & it says I have to do a restore. But it does not give me the RESTORE from Backup option. Only the Restore to Factory Settings. Is this normal?
Thank you for any help you can give me.

Hi I am trying to restore my iphone from the itunes back and it is asking me for a password, I don't ever remember putting a password in. how do i get the password reset?
You can't get it reset; if you could there would be no point in having it. If you have an encrypted backup there are two ways this could have happened:
You checked "Encrypt Backup" in iTunes at some time in the past, either intentionally or by accident
You have a corporate MS Exchange account and your Exchange administrator installed a security profile on your phone that requires the phone'a contents to be encrypted. This, in turn, requires the backup to be encrypted for obvious reasons.
In either case you were prompted for a password the first time you backed up after whichever of these happened. So think about what you might have entered for a password at that time. Fortunately you get an unlimited number of tries. Other threads on this subject have shown that it is always a password known to the user, so it wasn't something made up by iTunes. Also, everyone who has figured it out has found it to be a different password type, so try your Apple ID password, your computer's login password, your WiFi password, your corporate domain password, etc. And try passwords that may have been changed since your first backup. As a last resort there is a professional password cracker available, but it isn't cheap - it's targeted at the law enforcement market - from Elcomsoft. There are also some scam password crackers available that don't actually work and possibly steal your information. It's likely that a developer of one or more of these will post a response with a link (possibly hidden) to their "product". So before clicking any links you might want to install the Web of Trust plugin that keeps track of scam sites and warns you. http://www.mywot.com.

Is there a Windows tool to get pictures from Aperture's library and put them on the proper folders ?

So I got this huge Aperture library stored on a backup disk, but had to sell my iMac without having a chance to export all my pictures to a Windows laptop I have. My pictures are still accessible from Windows if I browse through my Aperture Library, but they are sitting in some cryptic folders.
Question is: Is there a Windows tool which would read the library's metadata and export the pictures to the appropriated folders (like "holidays in Europe 2009", or something less cheesy).
thanks a lot !

Hi paulolimajr,
Short answer, no, if there is a program I have not read about one. If there a Apple store near you, maybe they can load your Aperture library then export all the Masters and Versions to a flash drive.
Cordially,
RicD

Why will my iphone 5 not delete pictures from camera roll.

Why will my iphone 5 not delete pictures from camera roll. It comes up with the edit sign but no delete?

You have to tap Edit, then tap at least one photo before you get the delete button.

How can I restore deleted pictures from an iPhone 5 without back up?

How can I restore deleted pictures from an iPhone 5 without back up?

If you've previously synced the pictures to a computer (as is generally advised to archive them), then they are gone, unless you have backed up the device to itunes or icloud. If so, you need to perform a restore:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. This will erase your phone. Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your phone is new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
Note that you cannot restore just one file, it's all or nothing.

Unfortunately not.

After upgrading to Yosemite (I don't have iPhoto anymore, only PHOTOS) my pictures will not import from my iPad or iPhone 5s or any picture from web, it shows "Database Error: failured to persist version"

After upgrading to Yosemite (I don't have iPhoto anymore, only PHOTOS) my pictures will not import from my iPad or iPhone 5s or any picture from web, it shows "Database Error: failured to persist version". Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Sorry,
Yes, the error message is exactly like that ("Database error: failured to persist version")
No photos will import at all. I use USB to import from iPhone 5s or iPad 2.
About the difference? iPhoto and Photos . Are there two softwares?
I also will like to merge and/or synchronize all my photos I had saved to iCloud backups, Macbook Pro, iPhone 5s and iPad hard drives using iPhoto. It's call iPhoto library. At one point I turned off streaming.
Thanks again Larry HN.

.me mail wiped out from iPhone. Restore desktop Mail from Time Machine how?

Wife using her iPhone (OS 4.0.2) for some reason choose delete all on the mobile me account, which wiped out all of our old email on our iMac. Very important email from many years !
Fortunately, We are running Time Machine on a NAS, so getting the files back isn't a big deal. What I don't know is what I'm supposed to copy over. If I look at users-->library-->mail-->Mac(username)-->INBOX.imapmbox-->messages.. I can still see all the same messages that are showing up in time machine. Is there another file or trick I need to do for the mail app to get all of these messages back in the inbox and everything back to normal ?
Thanks !

Start Mail and while looking at the mail window, start time machine.
It should come up with the "star field" and you will have all the accounts and mailboxes available as far back as your TM backups go.
From there you can restore your mail.
Cheers
